Hey all,

For those of you who'd like to see firefox 1.0 in test, please help
test this and make sure I'm not breaking any boxes. :)

The main changes with the new firefox are:
* Installs to it's own "firefox" directory; no more trampling over
mozilla
# This means that mozilla and firefox can now coexist
* Updated to 1.0 :)
* Uses Xft instead of freetype2 (had problems with the latter)
* Cleaner variable usage in the spell

Problems with this release:
* Spells that install plug-ins need to be updated to check for
/usr/lib/firefox as well as /usr/lib/mozilla.

Enjoy! And let us know how it goes.

Here's an updated firefox tarball that fixes some problems johnny17
found. :)

Please test and let us know how it goes!
